Unless not all the LEDs are working. the charge rings are notorious for segments dying. maybe the 1st quadrant is dead?

Sold it.

I had intended to keep my '14 until something failed that was not fixable and then send it to the junk yard. I figured I'd eventually try building my own battery pack and have fun trying to figure out how to get the car to play nice with a non-factory battery. However after hearing of 2 same...

There is no guarantee on a % degradation. If it charges and drives without throwing a DTC you will more likely than not, get nothing from ford. I have no official knowledge on this, it's just my interpretation of reading the warranty and based on my observations of how ford has treated others...

It's a lot of work but it is doable. Keep us updated on how it goes. If you give up, let me know before you junk it, I might be interested.

I ran a LFP 12V battery in my FFE for about 2 years prior to selling it. It had a 50A max current draw BMS and a 10V LV cutoff. It worked great. I wonder how long that battery would have lasted had I kept my FFE. It had no problems with winter usage either.

I may be wrong but I don't think they did much when going from the 23 kWh to 33.5 kWh pack other than switching to higher density cells. I have read about at least one 2017+ that has the dreaded battery coolant leak so I'm not so sure they really fixed anything..

- APIM - Screen - GPS antenna and I'll even throw in the USB port adapter if you don't want to buy the stupid expensive USB hub. Only thing you really need is to transfer the mounting brackets from the old screen to the new screen.

Yeah I probably should have thought about that before I posted this. :lol: $250.

I no longer have my FFE but I kept the Sync3 system if anyone is interested in buying it. It's currently configured with the Mustang start up screen and Lincoln "Limitless" theme. so the shutdown screen is Lincoln. If you are local I'd be happy to re-program it if you want it different or in...

:lol: :lol: :lol: I would bet a large sum of cash that will never happen. Pretty sure this only applies to Mach E and F150 Lightning. Seeing as how the supercharger will communicate to the car for billing which I'm fairly certain the FFE cannot do.

If you are able to do it via wifi, let us know how it goes.

I don't remember if the rated nominal cell voltage is 3.6 or 3.7 volts. Either way you can calculate the cell capacity based on the known pack capacity. Pretty sure they are 15Ah cells. Since there are 430 cells in 86s5p. 3.6V x 86 = 309.6V at 15Ah a parallel group would be 75 Ah so 309.6V...

There rubber drain plugs you can pull on the battery pack to drain the coolant. I am 99.999% sure it would never dry out on it's own. Sadly if your batteries have been submerged in coolant for 2+ months. It may no longer be salvageable. You may be able to just let the coolant drain and dry...
